I'm a scientist exploring hybrid learning scenarios via game design and software development.Right now, I'm enjoying challenging & improving virtual learning experience paradigms with failure-driven, inquiry lead, experimental approaches. By exploring and bolstering traditional constructivist pedagogies with insights from learning analytics and UX/UI feedback in rational game design, I'm constantly learning how digital education strategies can be effectively optimised. I have 15 years of educational coaching and teaching experience and consider myself an enthusiastic competent beginner in my current passion project of training in metalwork and fabrication (special interest in TMAW processes). I'm also a cracking homebrewer, as many former microbiologists seem to be. My imperial stouts are particularly delicious.
